Can a person with casien sensitivity take calcium casienate and/or whey protien?

No.

Depending on the level of sensitivity, it could be fatal. I know of one kid who went into anaphylactic shock because other people in the car were eating cheese sandwiches. He never even touched the stuff - just breathed in the fumes.

Anything made from milk is totally off limits. No exceptions.

A solid reply.."no exception"....but..my oral supplement has calcium caeinate in it and the nutritionist is not aware of its link to casien..he is advising me to mix a bit of whey as well.

Sounds like you need to switch from a nutritionist to a dietician. At least source someone more knowledgeable. If you have a casien allergy I would advise you to neither take the calcium casienate (which is synthesized from dried skim milk) nor ingest whey protein. Find a different dairy/casien free supplement.
